Chapter 272: Millennial Ginseng
Fushou Pharmacy is in the hall on the first floor, and the decoration is very luxurious and magnificent. The building area is more than 1,000 square meters. There are thousands of Chinese and Western medicines in it, which can be described as the south and north of the world, and there are all kinds of rare and exotic herbs.
Gao Yang parked the car at the front gate of the big pharmacy, then got out of the car and entered the store.
Gao Yang first looked at the dazzling array of medicines. He hadn't seen where the ginseng was, and at this time, an old man, wearing a white coat, couldn't tell how old he was, anyway, he looked like an old man of sixty or seventy years old.
This old man, although he is not young, but he is in good spirits, he walks and his body is quite tough, he saw Gao Yang walking around the pharmacy, so he went over to say hello.
"Young man, what's the matter, I want to buy medicine!" The old man stood in front of Gao Yang very enthusiastically.
Gao Yang stared at the old man for a while, and then smiled: "Yes! Uncle, I want to buy a better ginseng, I don't know, do you have it in this store! β
"What's the matter, do you use it for yourself, or give it away!" The old man continued to ask.
"It's a gift, for a very old grandmother, I don't know, do you have any particularly good ginseng here!" Gao Yang said as he looked around again, wanting to see where the ginseng was placed.
"It's a giveaway! Well, you have found the right place, Minghai City, except for our Fushou Pharmacy, there is no place where there will be good ginseng. The other small pharmacies, where the ginseng is all artificially grown, is not really wild ginseng at all. Only in our Fushou Pharmacy can we have real wild ginseng! β
The old man was quite confident, all of a sudden. Just say that your pharmacy is a flower! And to say that other people's pharmacies are tofu scum.
"yes, then you can get me a box quickly." Gao Yang looked at the old man happily.
"Good. You wait, the old man finished. I walked to a medicine cabinet and took out a beautifully packaged ginseng gift box from the cabinet below.
The old man, holding the ginseng, came to Gao Yang's face.
"Check it out! How about the undamaged wild ginseng, aged over five hundred years. You see how beautiful the color is, and the fibrous roots, each one of which is intact. You may never find such good ginseng anywhere else. β
The old man praised his ginseng like a flower. I just want Gao Yang to buy this ginseng quickly.
"Hmmm! Looks good! How much do you want. Gao Yang intuitively glanced at the ginseng in the gift box, felt that it was good, and asked the price.
The old man glanced at Gao Yang, as if he was looking at Gao Yang's clothes to see if Gao Yang was rich and could buy this box of good ginseng.
"Good stuff, of course it's expensive. This box of thousand-year-old ginseng was carefully processed, and it took a whole year to process it alone.
Such. I see that you are giving it to the elderly, a piece of filial piety, so I will give you a discount. It was supposed to be nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine! I'll give you eight thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight now. β
The old man was quite generous, saying that he wanted to give Gao Yang a discount!
"Ahh It's so expensive! Although Gao Yang is not poor, he has not bought ginseng. I didn't know that ginseng could be so expensive, it would cost tens of thousands of yuan!
"Little brother, don't be too expensive, the price of ginseng mainly depends on whether it is wild or artificially grown. The price gap between the two is a world of difference.
Artificially grown ginseng, the cheap one may only cost a few dozen yuan, and you can buy one. However, if a wild pure natural wild ginseng is over 500 years old, the price will be expensive.
I don't know, have you ever seen a piece of news, Minghai TV just broadcast, saying that someone found a ginseng king on Changbai Mountain, aged more than 800 years old. He dug it up, and someone offered a million on the spot, and he didn't even sell it.
Little brother, my ginseng is also an authentic wild ginseng! Although the age is not 800 years old, it is also 4 or 500 years old! I gave you a price of less than 10,000 yuan, are you still too expensive! β
The old man saw that Gao Yang thought this ginseng was expensive, so he rambled a lot. It seems that this old man is also a poor man by nature. Gao Yang only needs to say one sentence, he can say ten words, it seems that he is really a suitable person for business!
When Gao Yang was talking to the old man, he suddenly had a curiosity, wanting to see if the old man was telling the truth, he said that this ginseng was wild, then it must be wild, and I still have to verify it.
Gao Yang was curious. He thought that he had feng shui golden pupils and could face the earth, but this ginseng grew from the ground. I really don't know what kind of situation I will see when I look at this ginseng with my feng shui golden pupils.
Gao Yang thought about it, and at the same time, he secretly looked at the so-called thousand-year-old ginseng in his hand with his feng shui golden pupils.
When he looked at it, he felt a little bad. Because, when he saw that this ginseng did not grow in the wild mountains and forests, it was actually grown in an artificially planted greenhouse. This shows that what the old man said is completely false, he actually used a piece of artificially grown ginseng to pass off as wild ginseng!
"Hey, old man, did you say that your ginseng is really wild ginseng!" Gao Yang looked at the old man, and there was obviously some anger in his eyes.
"What's the matter, young man, Iβmy ginseng isβwild!" When the old man saw that Gao Yang's gaze was very stern, he became weak-hearted, and he couldn't speak well.
"I said, sir, how can you do such a thing at such an age! To tell you the truth, I used to be in the ginseng business, and I knew at a glance that your ginseng, although it was very large and the color was also very good-looking, it was a fake, a piece of artificially grown ginseng. β
Gao Yang looked at the old man and said that he used to be in the ginseng business. I want to scare the old man and tell him the truth!
"Young man, you, what's wrong with you in the ginseng business, I, my ginseng is really wild ginseng! How can we sell fakes in such a big pharmacy! The old man still didn't want to admit that he was selling fakes.
Gao Yang saw that the old man still didn't want to admit that he was selling fakes, he was a little angry, thinking, it seems that he has to continue to scare the old man, otherwise, he won't admit his mistake!
Gao Yang thought of this, so he said to the old man again: "Uncle, that's the case, I have a friend from the Minghai City Industrial and Commercial Bureau, who is responsible for managing the fakes in the market, especially this fake ginseng, and he also knows how to identify them. Otherwise, I'll take this friend over for a while. If my friend says that your ginseng is really wild ginseng, then well, let alone 8,888, I'll give you a whole number, 10,000 yuan. If my friend says that you are a fake, an artificially grown ginseng, not a real ginseng, then I'm sorry, you will have to accept the punishment of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, what do you think? β
Gao Yang said the problem very strictly, just to see how long this old man could last.
"Ah, I'm sorry, little brother, I, I may have taken it by mistake when I was in a hurry just now, this is artificially grown ginseng, and it is worth hundreds of yuan. You wait for me a while, and I'll get you a box of real wild ginseng. β
The old man saw that Gao Yang had pulled out the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, and he couldn't resist it, he didn't want to, so he let his pharmacy be handled by the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. If that's the case, he won't gain more than he loses, and he will lose his wife and lose his army. Not only will he be punished by the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, but he will also severely affect the credibility of Fushou Pharmacy.
This old man was originally a retired doctor from a big hospital, but after retirement, he had nothing to do, so he hired Fushou Pharmacy as a salesperson at the head office.
The salespeople of these pharmacies are paid according to the commission of the sales, and you will only be paid more if you buy more drugs for which you are responsible. Therefore, the salesmen of these pharmacies are doing everything possible to buy the drugs they are responsible for.
This old man is also a money fan, and when he was a doctor, he received a lot of red envelopes. Now that I'm a salesperson, it's the same. In order to get some ill-gotten talents, he even wanted to sell fake ginseng as real ginseng.
Because fake ginseng only costs tens to hundreds of dollars, etc., while real ginseng costs thousands to tens of thousands of dollars, or even hundreds of thousands of dollars. Therefore, some people want to sell artificially grown fake ginseng as wild ginseng, so that they can take the money that harms consumers as their own.
Just like this old man, if he really sold this box of fake ginseng of hundreds of yuan to Gao Yang as real ginseng, if Gao Yang didn't sell the goods, it would be a big loss. This old man can earn tens of thousands of yuan all of a sudden.
But this time, he ran into Gao Yang, even if he was unlucky. How could Gao Yang be fooled casually!
The old man saw that today, he met an expert, a master, he quickly told the truth, and quickly changed Gao Yang to a box of real wild ginseng.
The old man now put the box of fake ginseng on the counter again, and took out a more beautifully packaged gift box from a medicine cabinet.
It is a rectangular gift box with a red exterior and a variety of beautiful patterns depicted. Inside this gift box is a real wild ginseng wrapped in yellow satin.
The old man came to Gao Yang with the gift box, he carefully placed the gift box on the counter in front of him, and then gently opened the lid of the box.
Inside, the yellow silk cloth was revealed. The old man carefully opened the silk again. Then, a thousand-year-old ginseng appeared in front of Gao Yang.
Gao Yang actually doesn't know much about ginseng. He mainly relied on his feng shui golden pupils to see if this ginseng was real.
Now the old man put a real wild ginseng in front of Gao Yang. Gao Yang glanced at it and felt that it looked very ordinary, not as good-looking as he imagined, and it was not very big. (To be continued......)
